- Body
What can I expect during the procedure?
A topical anesthetic will be applied before we begin the procedure to reduce the chances of pain. We will make small pricks under your skin with a pen-like tool during the procedure. The pinpricks are small and unnoticeable after the procedure.
Is there any downtime?
Microneedling has little to no downtime. You may notice skin redness like a sunburn for the first two days following the treatment, which is normal as your skin is recovering. Most patients return to their regular activities and return to wearing make-up within a day of treatment.
How do I know if I’m a good candidate for Microneedling?
Almost everyone can be a good candidate for this procedure, especially those with darker skin tones or pigmentation problems, because it doesn’t involve a laser treatment that affects skin pigmentation. If you have keloid scars or skin conditions such as psoriasis, severe eczema, please contact us for a free consultation to assess if Microneedling is safe for you.
What should I do after the procedure?
After the procedure, you may need to apply soothing serums. Avoid swimming in pools, lakes, rivers, and oceans as the area treated heals to prevent infections. Apply sunscreen as your skin will be more sensitive to the sun.
How many treatment sessions do I need to see visible results?
Results vary from patient to patient. Most patients begin to see results within 2 to 4 weeks. Multiple sessions may be required to maintain the results and achieve your desired results. Most patients need 4 to 6 treatments.
How safe is this treatment?
Microneedling is a safe procedure with minimal side effects. But, like any procedure, this should only be performed in a board-certified medical spa and by experienced professionals.
